DogStyle -- "Behind the Green Door" The scene is a spooky looking house outside of Liverpool, England. Otto, Samanta Maddog, Alice Kiddman, No36s, Boomerang and Emaryldwyn have joined a tour group that is visiting one of George Harrison's old houses. EMARYLDWYN (happy): Isn't this exciting? BOOMERANG (nods): Yes, very exciting! OTTO (sternly): George Harrison was one of the original members of the Beatles, he, Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr and John Lennon formed one of the most revolutionary and popular musical singing groups of modern times. NO36S (rolls eyes): Thank you Mr. Know-it-all! SAMANTHA (growls): HEY! NO36S (scared): Er.. sorry, I didn't mean anything by that... (smiles): But you have to admit your husband is a walking encyclopedia. ALICE (nods): He's right, Sammy... SAMANTHA (nods): You're right, Mr Alice, sir.. ALICE (smiles): Sammy, you don't have to call me 'sir', ok? SAMANTHA (nods): Yes sir... oops... I didn't it again, sorry... OTTO (points): It is said that this former home of Mr Harrison gave him and the other Beatles inspiration for some of their songs. Scanning..... seems like an ordinary 18th century structure to me, with a few modern touches such as electrical wiring.... BOOMERANG (interrupts): We get the picture, Otto. (looks around): I'm inspired already! EMARYLDWYN (shocked); Really? BOOMERANG (excited): Yeah, check out all of these English babes on the bus! NO36S (laughs): Should've seen that one coming... SAMANTHA (concerned): That house looks kind of ... spooky.... OTTO (sternly): These is nothing to fear, my love. No such things as ghosts, ghouls or spirits. All of that kind of talk is highly illogical and improbable.. ALICE (whispers to No36s and Boomerang): Watch this... Alice puts a white sack over his head, and slowly rises behind Samantha's seat and taps her on the shoulder.. ALICE (wearing white sack): BOOOOOO!!!!! Samantha instinctively screams and swings a push at the 'unknown' ghost. Alice falls like a sack of potatoes to the floor of the bus. SAMANTHA (kneeling down over him): OH DEAR!!! ALICE! Are you alright? ALICE (singing): London bridge is falling down....falling down.... falling down..... The scene now shifts to the inside of the house fifteen minutes later. A fully recovered Alice Kiddman is with the others as the tour group moves slowly through the house. Soon, they come upon a very plain looking green door which has been 'roped off' to keep the crowds away from it. TOUR GUIDE (female voice): This is the famous 'Green Door to Nowhere'. Legends say that this door leads to another dimension and that this fabled world inspired some of their music. (sees lifted hand): Yes? NO36S (excited): Open it! I wanna see if it's true! TOUR GUIDE (shakes head): No, I cannot allow that. You see, this door leads outside, we are now four stories up. If any of you would accidently fall through it, we'd face a lawsuit... BOOMERANG (raising hand): Then how do you know the legend's NOT true then? TOUR GUIDE (laughs): You crazy Yanks! Every bloak knows that there are no such things as doorways to other worlds! (motion to the group): Come along now, we have many more things to see! As the tour guide leads most of the group away, the six DogStyle members stand before the door. OTTO (sternly): Scanning..... the tour guide is correct, I detect nothing out of the ordinary on the other side of this door. BOOMERANG (turns to No36s): C'mon, the group's gone on ahead, let's take a peek! NO36S (nods): Let's do it! SAMANTHA (shocked); Wait! The nice tour guide told us.... BOOMERANG (hops over rope): She told me enough to make me curious... NO36S (hops over rope): Me too! EMARYLDWYN (smiles): I'd kinda like to see what's behind the door myself! ALICE (hushed tone): You guys are gonna get us thrown out of here! BOOMERANG (giggles): Not if we're quick about it! NO36S (turns knob): Yeah... As No36s opens the door, suddenly all six members of the DogStyle group find themselves 'pulled' through the doorway, as if a small tornado had sucked them into a whirlpool. As they spin in a white, empty void... ALICE (shouts): I knew this was a bad idea! SAMANTHA (screams): OTTO!!! WHAT'S GOING ON??? OTTO (shouts): I am unable to explain this phenomenon, insufficent data... EMARYLDWYN (happy): This is kinda fun! BOOMERANG (scared): FUN? Maybe if you like being scared out of your wits! NO36S (concerned): If we don't stop spinning soon, I'm gonna hurl! In a matter of seconds, the six 'land' on a patch of soft grassy ground. As they look all about, they see a very different world. The grass is violent in color, the sky is blue, but there's light green clouds floating in it. The grassy meadow they are in seems to stretch out forever on one side of the horizon. On the other side of the horizon, they see a city of many tall building, all colored white. As the Rover group approach the city, they find it inhabitated with beings that resemble walking 'smiley face' people, except they all have glum looks on their faces. The males and the females are dressed in plain, one colored jumpsuits and seem to be just wandering around aimlessly throughout the town. BOOMERANG (bewildered): This is too weird... NO36S (whispered): Did we fall into a storybook world? OTTO (sternly): Insufficent data... unable to determine physical location or ... ALICE (points): Let's stop one of these people and ask them what the deal is. EMARYLDWYN (nods): I'll do it! When Emaryldwyn steps in front of one the female beings, she screams and runs away. EMARYLDWYN (shocked); Please wait, don't run away, I only want to talk.... ALICE (shakes head): Too late, she's long gone... SAMANTHA (sadly): This just doesn't make any sense.. Soon, others of the strange, listless beings stop and stare at the 'newcomers'. Before long, a huge crowd has gathered, all staring at the Rovers, whispering to themselves, but not speaking outloud. OTTO (sternly): We seem to be drawing unwarranted attention BOOMERANG (sadly): The babes of this world sure are boring... SAMANTHA (scared); I hope they're not hostile EMARYLDWYN (upset): Wish they'd quit staring at us.. ALICE (mumbles): Hey, take a picture, it'll last longer... NO36S (points): He comes someone, looks like they're letting him through the crowd. Working his way through the crowd is a male being dressed a little differently from the others. He is soon standing before the Rovers. IT (shouts): I am called 'IT', you are strangers to our land, the first strangers we've seen in many, many moons. SAMANTHA (smiles): Please to meet you, Mr It, sir! I am Samantha Maddog, and this is my husband Otto, and our friends Alice Kiddman, Boomerang, No36s and Emaryldwyn! IT (smiles): You have manners as well as strange names. You remind me of the bug people that once visited our city.. OTTO (sternly): Bug people? As in insects? IT (motions): Follow me into the center of town and I will explain... The six members of DogStyle follow It down the street into the heart of town. There they see a huge statue of John, Paul, George and Ringo. BOOMERANG (points): It's a statue of the Beatles! EMARYLDWYN (looks down at It): These are the 'bug people' you mentioned? IT (nods): Correct. We were a listless, bored race of beings until these four found their way to our world. They would visit often, and bringing their unique music, clothing and ideas to us. For a long time, even when they no longer visited us, we as a people had inspiration and vision. (sadly): They have not returned to this world in a long, long time, and once more we lost our joy. OTTO (sternly): For one to have no inspiration or contentment is illogical IT (sadly): You are the first visitors to our world since the bug people. We were hoping you could inspire us again, add color to our dull lives. BOOMERANG (thinking): Hmmmm. If I only had a guitar, I could... Suddenly, a electric guitar appears in Boomerang's hands. BOOMERANG (shocked); What the.... (smiles): Whoa! Check THIS out! EMARYLDWYN (happy): WOW!! I want a guitar too! Suddenly, a guitar appears in Emaryldwyn's hands. EMARYLDWYN (shocked): TOO KEWL!!!! OTTO (sternly): Let's test a theory. (shouts): I would like a Pentium III subprocessor chip! The mircochip appears in the palm of Otto's outstretched hand. OTTO (looks at it): I was correct. In this realm, our very wishes can turn into reality ALICE (smiles): That's great! Guys, don't you get it? These people want creativity, role models to pattern their lives after! That's what the Bealtes did for them, why can't we do the same? SAMANTHA (looks at Otto): Do you agree with Alice, honey? OTTO (nods): As long as we are trapped in this world, it would seem logical to help these beings in any way we can... NO36S (excited): What are we waiting for? Let's have a DogStyle concert, complete with banners, ads, a stage, and .... As No36s continues to speak, the entire city suddenly transforms right before their eyes. Many of the taller buildings now bear the 'DogStyle' logo. The entire group of Rovers are suddenly in their concert clothes, and the beings of the city instantly copy them. The females are all dressed like Samantha and Emaryldwyn, the males like Alice, Boomerang, No36s and Otto. EMARYLDWYN (shocked): I can't believe my eyes! OTTO (sternly): Believe in everything you are seeing, this is what makes these things exist in this world SAMANTHA (points): Look! A concert stage in the center of town! BOOMERANG (smiles): Let's give these folks a concert! ALICE (nods); Right! NO36s (nods): I'm ready! The six walk upon the stage and begin to play. A huge crowd gathers and watches the group, their music soon has the beings clapping, cheering and begging for more. After singing nearly twenty songs, the exhausted Rovers sit down to take a rest. IT (hops unto the stage): Look, just look at my people! They are happy and rejoicing, thanks to your group of singers! Please, sing more, play more songs, we can't get enough! SAMANTHA (panting): We'd like to, Mr It, sir, but we're tired.... OTTO (nods); Playing a concert takes considerable physical and mental effort... BOOMERANG (giggles): Maybe they could buy our CD's... Suddenly, one of their CD's appears in Boomerang's hands, It takes a look at it. IT (bewildered): What is this strange object? EMARYLDWYN (smiles): It's called a compant disk, it plays music, the exact same music we performed here! IT (puts it to his ear): I hear no music from this object... NO36S (smiles): You have to put it in a CD player... A portable CD player appears in No36s hand, he hands it to IT and puts the CD in. IT (delighted): You are correct! This device makes music! With your vocals and musical compositions on it! BOOMERANG (smiles): Now if everyone in town had one of these.... Suddenly, every one of the beings has a portable CD player with the DogStyle CD in it, playing for them. OTTO (shocked): Amazing! EMARYLDWYN (sadly): This is all well and good, but I want to go home now... NO36S (nods): Me too... SAMANTHA (sadly); I miss my children.... ALICE (nods); I miss Colleen... OTTO (sternly): Wait... if the Beatles could come and go from here as they pleased, there must be a way for us to return to the real world also BOOMERANG (sarcasticly): That's easy, just wish for a green door outta here... Suddenly, a green door appears in front of the startled Rovers BOOMERANG (stunned): I didn't think THAT would work! IT (pleading): Samantha Maddog, please, all of you, stay with us.... SAMANTHA (shakes head); This is your home, we have to return to our home now.. IT (pleading): Please, don't leave us... we want more.. BOOMERANG (smiles): You guys have a big head start already! EMARYLDWYN (smiles): We loved our visit to your world, but we can't stay here forever... IT (nods): I understand... the bug people had this same problem, but will you visit us often? OTTO (sternly): We will be leaving England soon, there is only the single Green Door... SAMANTHA (sadly): Too bad you can't scan and retain the coordinates of this universe, dear. OTTO (nods); I wish I had the ability to teleport us here anytime we wanted to visit... (shakes a little): Accessing... (shocked): This is peculiar... BOOMERANG (turns to Otto): What's that? OTTO (sternly): I have just 'grown' a new set of teleportation circuitry... as well as acquired the coordinates of this universe... IT (happy): You got your wish, Otto, you and your friends can now visit here anytime, thanks to your internal circuitry! OTTO (shocked): Fascinating.... SAMANTHA (smiles): We will keep our promise, Mr It, sir, we will visit you and this world again! The entire crowd cheers and applauds as the six walk over to the green door. BOOMERANG (waves): Goodbye for now, friends! NO36S (waves): So long! ALICE (waves): Adios! EMARYLDWYN (waves): Bye bye! SAMANTHA (waves): Goodbye everyone! OTTO (waves): Farewell for now.. IT (waves): Goodbye, and thank you all! As the six enter the green door, they suddenly find themselves back at the Harrison house. The tour guide is running over to them. TOUR GUIDE (shouting): GET AWAY FROM THERE!! I told you to stay away from that door! SAMANTHA (sadly): We are very sorry, ma'am.... TOUR GUIDE (looks at the door): Ok, no harm done, now get up here with the rest of the group! SAMANTHA (looks at Otto): It seems like we were in the other world for hours... OTTO (sternly): Accessing..... my data shows that we have returned to this world only five seconds after we left it... EMARYLDWYN (shocked): What? ALICE (sternly): You mean that while we were in that other world, only five seconds expired in THIS world? OTTO (nods): That is correct, Alice NO36S (stunned): WHOA!!! BOOMERANG (shocked): TOO KEWL!!! OTTO (nods): Indeed.... SAMANTHA (smiles): Well, at least we now know what's behind the green door.... The six laugh as they rush to catch up with the tour group, Samantha looks back at the green door. SAMANTHA (thinks to herself): And we will return to that world someday..... a promise is a promise... -------------------------------------------------------------------------
